Thank you for changing flat tire

I would like to thank three young men who were there for me yesterday.

I was on my way home when I had a flat tire. I had never changed a flat tire before in my life.

I’m in my 60s and had bypass surgery a year ago. I called everyone I could think of for help but they were all gone to work and I didn’t renew my CAA yet.

There I was standing on County Rd. 42 near Patillo Road when a young man just finished his exam for the day from St. Anne’s high school. He stopped, he called his buddies, told them where he was and they also came to help.

They worked as a team and my tire was changed in no time at all. I offered to pay them and they refused.

It was nice to see that not all young people are selfish. Again, thank you and God bless you, boys.

We’re not saying Windsor shouldn’t attempt to draw other events like FINA 2016, but we are saying an economic impact study must be done afterward to determine what it delivered, and what that means to the community in cold, hard cash.

Essex County, including the Tecumseh region, was a hotbed of activity for freedom fighters dedicated to emancipation. The 1871 census lists parishioners George Harris, William Baker, William Jones and Henry Smith validating a continued black presence.

Those who suggest sex ed shouldn’t be part of the school experience are missing the point. Sex education is like any other form of learning. The more you know, the more likely you are to make an informed choice.
